I am researching an early Asphodel family, the Richardsons,.
Henry is particularly difficult to find any conclusive records for. I have found him on the 1851 census in the family home.
He was the son of Robert Richardson and Mary Buchanan.

Henry Richardson, b 3 Aug 1834 Emily Tsp, Baptized Sept 1834 at Emily Colborne, s/o Robert Richardson & Lydia.

Is Henry Mary's son? She would only have been 14 when he was born according to 1851 census.

Didn't find anything else on him except the 1851 census.
Died?

This is the only record I'm seeing as well. As Robert Richardson was almost twenty years older than his wife Mary, I'm wondering if perhaps he had a previous wife named Lydia. (I see another wife named Grace.)

Could Robert Richardson have had an earlier family with Lydia Wallace, before his marriage to Mary Buchanan?

Both Edwin and William Richardson were on the Asphodel Tp. 1852 census, on the same page as Robert Richardson & Mary, a few lines down, but this didn't give their ages.

Sorry, been away on holiday and didn't see your message Cheryl. Hmm, this warrants further investigation!
